Sunlight Ecotourism Island Resort Reviews

It's good place to relax if you come with a family . Transfers are a little bit pricy and long time waiting

Airport pickup, TV movies, restaurant ceiling fans, reservations for dinner were all broken/didn’t work (including telling us after arrival that it’s 4K per person for the boat transfer, when we had been quoted 2.5k at time of booking and we even saw an advert at the resort for locals to come to the island for the day for 2.5k INCLUDING LUNCH?!?). Many other things were mismanaged or not managed at all including only orange, green, and water melon as fruit for breakfast. What is this some cheap American hotel?!? When I asked, I got a banana and some under ripe papaya. Good effort by the very nice staff who are always willing to help but where is the manager of this place. Lots more management, lots more training necessary to justify the high prices and they’re difficult to get to location.

WONDERFUL RESORT, NICE WATER BUNGALOW WITH GLASS BALCONY, WATCH FISHES ANYTIME

The ritual of going to the island and the warm hospitality of the staff made it a very pleasant trip. I will come again next time.

This is my first time to comment on Ctrip because the experience is really bad! ! After all, protecting everyone from lightning is not something that only costs a few hundred dollars a night! ! We traveled as a family and stayed in two duplex villas for three nights. The hotel alone cost NT$20,000. In addition to the good hotel environment, other conveniences, meals, and rules are really hard to describe. The hotel is far away from island hopping, and the price is twice as expensive as other hotels, so I really recommend staying in the town. There is also diving, which is more expensive than others. There is nothing interesting to see. It is under the hotel pier without going out to the sea. For lunch, there is a Chinese restaurant. It takes half an hour from ordering to serving. I don’t know if it was fished from the sea temporarily. A Filipino dish is even more outrageous. It takes only an hour and a half to fry a chicken. I wonder if it was a chicken that went out to the island temporarily to catch it. No wonder there are not many tourists and it is deserted at night. The most annoying thing is that the time to leave the island is according to their time. As a result, we have to wait for a long time at the pier and arrive at the airport too early, resulting in another three hours of waiting. Very poor experience! ! ! It’s really not worth the price! !

A great place for couples to travel. The room is a glass room, beautiful, and the service is also very good.

Local airport vehicle pick-up/ship on and off the island: 4000P if purchased separately, but this is the worst part of the experience. First of all, it is difficult to contact, and no one responds to emails. On the return journey, a boat of people came out together. I wanted to leave at 1:00 pm after lunch. When I checked out at 11:00, the front desk said that I would take the 12:00 boat to leave. But some people were late and waited until 12:45 to leave. They felt that the time was set for those who obeyed the rules, and there was no fixed timetable. Breakfast: really bad, not edible at all.

The Chinese taste restaurant has not had KTV for a whole day, and did not eat. This boss is really smart.

It's worth coming! This is the second time I have come to Palawan. The first time I lived in the town of Coron, this time I booked one island and one hotel. Sunlight deserves to be the number one resort on Colon Island. Due to the epidemic, the resort was closed for 2 months and reopened. I flew from Manila on the resort’s private jet on the fourth day of the reopening. At first, I used the resort’s private jet plus the package price of 3 nights to stay. Later, I really liked this resort island so much that I renewed my booking for 3 nights with Ctrip. Because of the new opening and the government's epidemic control, the hotel can only open 30% of the rooms. The resort saw me staying alone and directly upgraded me to a high-end water house! Everyone, you must live in a water house. It really kills ordinary rooms. The facilities of the water house are upgraded as a whole. The floor and balcony floor are all glass. You can directly see the corals and small fishes underwater. The resort occupies a small island with two large white sand beaches. You can see large corals and fish in the waters at the door. You can go to the coral garden with a banana boat. The hotel's service is very good, parking on call, the resort also has Chinese hot pot, Korean barbecue, Japanese cuisine, which really caters to different tastes, and a variety of live seafood. Five-star recommendation!

From the airport and upon arriving at the resort, we knew we would have a good time!! Very reliable speed captain, smooth transfer of luggages to the warm welcome upon arrival at the boat jetty. The warm temperature was immediately relieved with cool towels given to guest aside from toe cool sweet drinks offered. Golf carts are provided for the guest since the Villas are far from the jetty, and upon arrival our own personal butler named Dexter was already waiting for us. The Salipan Villa was awesome, with our own mini pool/jacuzzi! Food was great, staff were corteous and all in all the experaience was 5 !

Amazing experience❤️❤️❤️. Very polite helpful staff and crew❤️❤️❤️. The foods were delicious and yummy. Our butler, Salepan 3, Erjun, was very patient and his services is commendable. Most of all, the resort is perfectly made for all in one nature tripping, from the beaches, snorkeling, corals, fishes… ang ganda

Our time at SETIR Palawan Resort was unforgettable, thanks to Dexter Mesiola, our dedicated butler. Dexter's great and most of all fun service ensured our comfort from start to finish. The resort's luxurious amenities and stunning views of Palawan's natural beauty made our stay exceptional. Dexter and the staff made us feel valued throughout. The food was great too. Our room was well equipped with very comfortable bed and fluffy pillows. Highly recommended for a memorable getaway.

My family and I really enjoyed our stay at SETIR. It is the perfect place to relax, unwind, and truly enjoy bonding with family and friends as the whole place is like a slice of paradise here in Palawan. We are fortunate to be given our own personal butler which made it easier to coordinate all the needs and requests during our stay. The whole island is a paradise - the food is good, all staff are respectful and very welcoming, very comfortable accommodation - everything is just perfect. This will definitely be a new standard for us when booking our trips. Thank you to our personal butler, Sir Jay-ar, for making our stay a very memorable one. We will definitely come back here again!

The place is superb....very relaxing, food great, the staff are accomodating and efficient....i had a great experience, the tour and snorkeling at the Japanese shipwrecked, the coral garden and lunch at the Pass Island were wonderful ..
